Just two bidders remain in the auction of sports and talent agency titan IMG Worldwide, with each being asked to make third and final offers by late next week, The Post has learned.

Hollywood talent agency WME and Silver Lake Partners, which are working with former ESPN programming boss Mark Shapiro, are battling against the team of Peter Chernin, CVC Capital and Steve Bornstein, who just quit the NFL Network. So far, the bids are close to $2.5 billion, sources said.
